In the Template dialog,navigate to the macOS taband select Command Line Tool and click Next.Fill in the field with any name or identifier that you like.But for the language, select C++.Click on Next to create the project template.In here, under the working folder,there's a file called main.cpp,which will not be usedif you want to run the exercise files provided.

So I'll go ahead and delete it.To use one of the exercise files,I'll drag the desired .cppin from the exercise folder into the working folder.When the dialog comes up,I select Copy items if neededand ensure that working is selectedin the Add to targets field.Then, I click on Finish to move the desired files.Now that Xcode is all set up,we can start creating programsbased on different design patterns.

I have a Xamarin.Forms project.

I'm using vs2015.

Today I updated Xamarin to the latest version:4.0.0.1697.

When I tried to connet my mac as the Xamarin Mac Agent, vs shows the message below:

Visual Studio For Mac Does Not Start

Starting Agent Build 4.0.0.1697...

Visual Studio For Mac Offline

Failed to start iOS Simulator in the mac

An error occured starting the Build 4.0.0.1697 agent: The operation has timed out.

Starting Agent Designer 4.0.0.1697...

An error occured starting the Designer 4.0.0.1697 agent: The operation has timed out.

The Xamarin Mac Agent could not be fully started. Agents not started: IDB 4.0.0.1697, Designer 4.0.0.1697, Build 4.0.0.1697. Please check the logs for more details.

So I can't debug the ios app.

I don't know how to do next.

So I ran into this problem. It was driving me nuts.

My problem was that I was using the Mac just to be able to launch the app. Otherwise, it was just sitting idle. What turned out to be the problem was that the 'Energy Saver' settings on my mac was set with 'Put hard disks to sleep when possible' checked. That was the reason for the failure in my case. It is also probably better to check 'Wake for network access'.

I constantly have issues with Xamarin Mac Agent and Visual Studio running on Parallels (Currently why i'm here). However, sometimes following the troubleshooting steps in this guide helps, however, not always.

I suspect my issue lies deeper - yours could possibly aid from this link.

So if anyone stumbles on this there are a couple things to try.

There are of course the three R's Restart Reboot and Reinstall.

Restart Visual Studio and xcode.Reboot all pc's involved, The Build agents sometimes get into funky states and rebooting clears them all out and lets you start freshFor good measure reboot your router while your at it and make sure your IP addresses are what you assume they are.

Then UpdateReinstall. If the xcode on your mac got updated you may need an Xamarin update in VS in order to make the connection or Xamarin Studio Update on the Mac.

Open all threeXcode, Xamarin Studio on the Mac and VisualStudio and make sure all 3 are updated.While your in Xcode go ahead and create a new project and run it. See if the simulator comes up from within XCode or if you get prompts to accept licenses etc.

It may be necessary to reinstall Xcode if the update doesn't fix it or doesn't update.

Start

After all that if it still doesn't work you can put your toes in the water and your A$$3 in the sand with a PBR on a beach in Mexico. That fixes everything.
